Technical Forecast Discussion
Short-term Forecast (Thursday 09/26/2024 through Saturday 09/28/2024)
The chance for precipitation will continue as remnants of Helene progress northward. This tropical moisture will keep our skies fairly cloudy and relative humidity levels high. Winds could get pretty gusty on Friday as the remnants progress in due to the strong pressure gradient with this low moving in as well as strong winds aloft. The chance for a surplus of rainfall is minimal for our region as most of this is anticipated to remain to our east and south. The chance for precipitation will minimize into Saturday for any homecoming activities as the low continues its progression out of the area.
Long-term Forecast (Sunday 09/29/2024 through Wednesday 10/02/2024):
Cooler and drier weather appears to be ahead in our long-term forecast. As these unsettled conditions continue to move out, a front will progress through Tuesday dropping temperatures further. The long-term outlook is a little uncertain due to the tropical low progressing through the area but, conditions should be far drier and more pleasant to start next week!
